Chapter 4

Weeks slide by slurring a month together and Kurama got to less and less of his former friends. Yomi seemed to try to keep him as busy as possible. But when he manage to enjoy their company Kai and Sunny were hardly around. One day after a meeting Kurama saw Kai running down the hall looking frantic. "What's wrong?" Kurama asked as she stopped in front of him.

"Have…have you seen…Onii-chan?" Kai panted out. "No, I've been in meetings all morning." Kurama said. Kai straightened up. "I need to find him. He's in charge of our missions and Sunny should have been back from the Wastelands already." Kai said walking past him. "What if she didn't get that mission?" Kurama asked following.

"That's what I'm worried about. That idiot will take any mission give to her." Kai said partially running again. Kurama grabbed her by the shoulders and looked her in the eye. "Clam down Kai. I'm sure Kuronue wouldn't put her in danger she's probably just taking her time." Kurama said. Kai took a deep breath and try to regained her composer. 'I can't believe I'm letting him see me like this. Only Kuronue and Sunny should see me like this. I need to relax.' Kai thought nodding closing her eyes. "You're right." Kai said. Kuronue then floated in the hallway from outside.

He stared at them for a quiet moment analyzing them. "See there he is. "Kurama said releasing her shoulders. "Yes thank you." Kai said walking over to Kuronue. "Onii-chan have you seen Sunny. She should have been back two hours ago from the Wastelands." Kai said as her tails twitched nervously. "She didn't go to the Wastelands she want to the Forest of Silence." Kuronue said stepping away from Kai. He knew what was about to happen.

"WHAT?! You sent her there?! Are you crazy?!" Kai exclaimed as her tails puffed out. 'Forest of Silence? But that's not that dangerous why is she worrying?' Kurama thought. "Mukuro was spotted near there a few days ago." Kai half hissed. "Yes Yomi wanted her to scope out the enemy." Kuronue said placing a hand on Kai's ear rubbing lightly trying to relax her but failing.

"She'll do more than scope them out. Her boyfriend is there! She might not come back!" Kai said. "What?! Her boyfriend!" Kuronue exclaimed in disbelief. "Not come back but then she'll be charged with mutiny." Kurama said stepping closer to them. "Exactly! She'll risk it for him." Kai said pulling away from them.

Kuronue and Kurama took off towards the door. Kai quickly caught up to them. "Why didn't she tell anyone else?" Kuronue asked as they raced across the ground. "She didn't want to be embarrassed by you guys beside with him on the opposing team right now isn't the best time for them to be dating." Kai said as they left Yomi's territory. "Do you know her boyfriend?" Kurama asked. 'Why am I out here doing this? This isn't my problem. But it would bug me all night knowing I did nothing to assistant them." Kurama thought.

"Of course I do! I introduced them! From rumors I heard Sunny's boyfriend is quickly raising in the ranks and becoming one of Mukuro's favorite. Sunny's the jealous type and I don't even know what she'll do." Kai said as they picked up speed. "What will Iko do?" Kuronue questioned. "Nothing hopefully, I'm praying Sunny won't resort to that." Kai said.

'Iko, she always was a lose cannon that she could barely control. How will we get her back to normal without her around?" Kurama thought. "What will you do to stop her?" Kuronue asked as they entered Mukuro's domain. "Everything within my power limit." Kai said looking grim. 'Why is it Kai's responsibly? Has Iko replaced her with Kai? Or is Kai….HER! Is Kai Yoko Tsuki?' Kurama thought shocked almost stopping.
